Cassidy is a Registered Provisional Psychologist, Neurotherapy, and QEEG technician working under the supervision of Kelly Fredell. She has a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Masters in Counselling Psychology.

Cassidy takes a non-pathologizing approach to therapy, understanding that patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating are not signs of dysfunction, but natural adaptations to life’s complexities. Beneath these patterns, there is a deeper self—intact, aware, and capable of change. Therapy is not about becoming someone new, but about strengthening one’s connection to this inner foundation.

Working with adolescents (14+) and adults, she offers a space to reflect, explore, and challenge the narratives that have shaped their lives. Integrating approaches like Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and Deep Brain Reorienting, she moves beyond traditional talk therapy to engage with the body’s role in holding and processing experience. Rather than relying solely on insight, this work facilitates shifts that are deeply felt, creating the conditions for meaningful and lasting change.

With a grounded and intuitive presence, Cassidy walks alongside clients in their healing, holding space for both depth and challenge. She brings warmth, curiosity, and authenticity to the therapeutic relationship, believing that therapy is an active process—one that invites clients to engage fully in their own growth. Her work supports those who are ready to deepen self-awareness, strengthen agency, and move toward a more intentional, connected way of being.

Reaching out for support can be incredibly difficult. It takes time, trust, and courage to build a connection with someone and feel safe enough to open up. I understand how important that connection is, and I’m committed to creating a space where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and understood.

Everyone’s journey to wellness is unique. My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and grounded in the belief that each person deserves support that meets them exactly where they are. My goal is to foster a safe and therapeutic environment that honours your experiences and empowers you to move forward at your own pace. I have experience connecting people with mental health resources and understand the challenges that can come with finding the right fit. My goal is to help make that process easier and ensure you feel supported every step of the way. I’m dedicated not only to providing supportive care, but also to ensuring that the administrative process feels smooth, clear, and stress-free. From the first point of contact to ongoing communication, my goal is to make your experience as accessible and comfortable as possible so you can focus on what truly matters—your well-being.

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward. They may feel like they should have things figured out by now, yet find themselves caught in patterns of anxiety, self-doubt, or relationship challenges that are hard to shift on their own. I work with both individuals and couples, tailoring therapy to meet you where you are and what you need most.

For individuals, I support clients in understanding patterns, building emotional regulation skills, and navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress/burnout, trauma, ADHD, neurodivergence, and life transitions. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and ACT, I help you develop practical tools while also creating space for deeper reflection and growth. I work particularly well with individuals who feel stuck in patterns they cannot seem to break, even though they are motivated for things to change.

For couples, I use the Gottman Method to help partners improve communication, rebuild trust, and navigate conflict in a more connected and constructive way. Whether you are feeling stuck in recurring arguments, struggling with disconnection, or working through a significant transition, I provide a structured and supportive space to strengthen your relationship. I often work with couples who feel disconnected but still care deeply about their relationship and want to find their way back to each other.

My approach is collaborative, warm, and nonjudgmental. I focus on creating a space where you feel understood and supported, while also helping you move toward meaningful, lasting change. Together, we work to build clarity, confidence, and stronger relationships with yourself and with others.

Many clients come into therapy feeling anxious, apprehensive, or overwhelmed—often unsure of where to start or whether therapy can truly help. It’s common to feel like you should be able to handle things on your own, which can make reaching out for support feel especially hard.

I strive to offer a warm, comfortable, and often light-hearted space where clients feel safe taking each step of the therapy process at their own pace. I meet clients where they’re at, taking time to understand their individual needs, what helps them feel safe and supported, and tailoring my approach to each person.
